Partners

Get paid when your people distribute better.

Two programs. Affiliates earn 30% of everything a referred customer pays for 12 months. Agencies run Distful for their clients at partner pricing and earn 20% on every client account they bring, for as long as it stays.

Commissions are calculated on what the customer actually pays us, after refunds and before tax. Terms are the same for every partner. We do not run tiers, quotas or minimums to keep your rate.

How it works

Apply once. Earn every month.

1

Apply

Two minutes. Tell us who you reach, or who you serve, and how you would put Distful in front of them. No traffic threshold, no minimum client count.

2

A person reads it

You hear back within 3 business days. We say yes when your audience or your clients make B2B content, and we say no plainly when they do not.

3

Share, or onboard

Affiliates get a link, a one page explainer and posts ready to adapt. Agencies get partner pricing, a workspace per client and a walkthrough with the founder.

4

Get paid monthly

Every click, sign up and payment shows in your dashboard. Commissions confirm after 30 days and pay out monthly once you are above $50.

Why this is worth your time

A product your audience already needs, and money that keeps coming.

$716 one Team referral, first year

Recurring means one recommendation keeps paying. 30% of the $199 Team plan for 12 months is $716, from one link, in one post, and it is still paying next spring.

Illustrative: 30% of $199 for 12 months. Actual earnings depend on what your referrals buy and how long they stay.

An easy thing to recommend

Everyone in your audience has a webinar, an interview or a guide that got one post and died. Distful turns it into three weeks of posts and emails, and the first look is free. You are not asking anyone to take a risk.

Material that does not embarrass you

A one page explainer, post drafts in your voice rather than ours, the 23 articles on the blog to share, and a founder who answers the question you cannot. Nothing you have to apologise for.

What we ask

Four rules, all of them obvious.

1

Say that you are a partner. A one line disclosure wherever you share your link. Your audience deserves it and the law in most places requires it.

2

Do not bid on our name. No paid search on Distful or misspellings of it, and no pages built to look like ours. Rank for your own name.

3

Do not refer yourself. Your own accounts, your own company and your own clients' accounts that you manage are not affiliate referrals. Agencies have their own terms for exactly that.

4

Do not promise what we do not. No invented results, no coupon codes, no cashback. Everything on this site is what you can say. If you want to say more, ask us first.

Partner questions

How much do affiliates earn?

30% of every payment a customer you referred makes during their first 12 months, whatever they buy. That includes single campaigns, monthly plans, extra source assets and upgrades. A Team customer who stays the year is worth about $716 to you. There is no cap and no tier to unlock.

How does attribution work, and how long does the cookie last?

Last click, 90 days. Anyone who clicks your link and creates an account within 90 days is yours, even if they only pay later. B2B buying is slow, and a 30 day window would punish you for that. If two partners referred the same person, the most recent click wins.

When and how am I paid?

A commission is confirmed 30 days after the payment it comes from, which is the refund window. Confirmed commissions are paid once a month, by PayPal or bank transfer, as soon as your balance is above $50. You see every click, sign up and payment in your partner dashboard as it happens.

For agencies, what is the difference between referring and managing?

Referring means your client opens their own Distful account and pays us directly. You earn 20% of everything they pay, for as long as they stay a customer. Managing means you run Distful for them inside your own account, one workspace per client, at 20% off Team and Scale, and you bill your client however you like. Most agencies mix the two.

Can I be both an affiliate and an agency partner?

Yes, and many people are. Pick the program that matches most of what you do when you apply. If you also do the other thing, say so in the form and both are set up on the same account. Audience referrals pay affiliate terms, client accounts pay agency terms, and nothing is double counted.

Do you send leads to agency partners?

When a company asks us to run distribution for them, which we do not do, we introduce them to a partner whose clients look like them. We cannot promise volume, and we will not pretend to. What we can promise is that the introductions go to partners, not to a form.

What happens if a customer cancels or asks for a refund?

Commission is paid on money we actually keep. A refund inside the 30 day window cancels the commission on that payment, which is the whole reason for the hold. When a subscription ends, the commission ends with it. Nothing is clawed back after it has been paid out.

Can I offer my audience a discount code?

No. The offer for everyone is the same: seeing what Distful found inside a source is free, and a full campaign is $49 with no subscription. We would rather pay you 30% than pay your audience 10% and pay you less. It also means your link is never undercut by a coupon site.

We read every one of these ourselves.
